The clever ex leaguer eent them back to their tea and dessert runloss, while the so journers from what was formerly known as San Francisco's bedroom chased seven runs over the spot that made Lou Ma haltey yell. "You're safe." It's a long cry from Cinnabar Springs to the ball park, and those Portland rang-chasers should have been more con siderate than to put up such a listless ' exhibition when such a distinguished vis itor was present. Callff must have been thrown into a fit when ho caught sight of the whiskers which the man wore. Either this or some one must have stepped on the Oregon City lad's foot. The only thing he exhibited In the pitch ing line was his toe plate, and that not being In the way of the Commuters, Van llaltren's crew passed It up and took a special delight In pelting Califf's curves Into spots where" the Giants' weren't. While Califf was unsteady, old Bill Reldy teased SIcCredle's sluggers with lite slow ones and mixed up his fast ones, so that what few wallops the Giants were able to Jam Into safe territory were scat tered like a Klondlker's gold after he has hit God's country. To help Reidy, not that he needed it, Portland threw a ses sion of bone head Into one Inning, and It gave the visitors one more run than they were entitled to. The put-ups dl not blacken the grand stand or the land of bleach, so the fact that only a few witnessed Oakland In the act of really winning a game helped take off the stlnT of defeat. Oakland shoved Hackett around the circuit In the second Inning. That was because Bliss stole sec ond and pilfered his way home on a aqueeie play. The next time that play was executed successfully. Hackett did his own running this time, and was safe when Haley dumped one down towards first. In the fifth, sixth and seventh In nings Oakland chased home their runs In couples. When the curtain fell on the sev enth and seven runs were marked up for the Commuters the fans knew It was off, and they betran rooting for Oakland. Pete Lister was the bright and shining star for the homers. Twice he took a Journey Into the smoke-laden atmosphere, dug his digits into balls that had a time order for the bleachers, and as he came down he speared the rnnners. McHale also came in for a clever catch or two; bo did Mike Mitchel). The score: PORTLAND. AB. P.. IB. P.O. A. E.

NEWPORT, Aug. 21. An excellent be ginning was made today In weeding out the record-breaking list of contestants in the opening round of the National lawn tennis championship in singles. There were 53 matches on the list In the first round of the singles tournament, and all but one were decided before the play closed for the day. The default of Waidner and Emerson of the West to Hackett and Alexander of the East in the doubles gave room for the singles match between R. D. Little and F. C. Anderson in that court. This contest was decided in Little's fa vor in straight sets. 6-3, 6-4, 8-6. The match between the two Long wood players, D. C. Wright, brother of the champion, and N. W.

HAS FORTUNE OF MILLIONS Belonging to Aristocratic Family, He and His Wife Are Democratic in Manner and Travel Without Valets or Maids. Harrald Funch. the Carnegie of Sweden, has been a guest at the Hotel Portland for several days. Because of his thor oughly democratic ways and utter abhor ence of anything that even borders on ostentation. It was not generally known that the hotel sheltered one whose name in Sweden Is what the name of Carnegie or Frlck is in this country. Mr. Funch is the most Important single factor In the steel Industry of Sweden, and U one ofv the most powerful steel SIDE STEEL KING OF SWEDEN AND HIS WIFE t 2JX I -' - :. . mm MR. AND MRS. HAROLD kings of Europe. His family's wealth Is represented by tens of millions, embrac ing mines, foundries and tracts of forest covering 600,000 acres in Sweden. Some of the men members of the family look after the lumber business, and the others interest themselves in the steel indus try. It is purely a family affair and although the mines are worked, the steel manufactured and the timber cut and sold by the company formed for con venience, the shares are all held by blood relations. There is nothing about the appearance or mode of living of Mr. Funch to indi cate enormous wealth. He and his wife, a woman of many accomplishments and of charming personality, occupy a room at the Hotel Portland no better than those given the every-day traveling salesman. They are all by themselves, and have no valets or maids, the atten tion of which so many of the rich con sider absolutely necessary. And it might be said that they look Just as neat and as correctly dressed as though they had a dozen maids and valets. Makes Pleasure Tour of the World. Mr. Funch Is a young man and docs not appear to be more than 35 years of age. He looks anything but like a son of Sweden, as his hair is dark, and in stead of blue his eyes are black and snappy. His family has lived in Sweden for generations, but running through the family tree is a deep vein of Scotch blood. Mr. Funch looks decidedly foreign but, nevertheless, he has. the get-up and push of the American business man. He has four or five different languages at his command and speaks English very fluently. He Is making a pleasure tour of the world and will be absent from Sweden altogether about 12 months. Mr. Funch differs from most of the European rich. He does not consider It a disgrace or not in keeping with the dignity of the family name to engage In business, although he is of the blue blooded of Sweden. In his country most of the great industries, or many of them, are owned or controlled by families. The aristocrats care little for business, and the business is oftentimes allowed to run down because of lack of atten tion of those who should be Interested. This, to a certain extent, 'has held back the development of the country. When Mr. Funch had finished his school education he Immediately began a study of the steel business. He learned it In all its details. He studied other methods besides those in use in his own factories. He at last was given charge of the selling end, and during the last six years has wrought won ders. - Instead of sitting around on cushions with a mob of servants to attend to needs, waiting for business, he went out for it. Ha knew that his mines turned out the finest of steel and he found a market for it. From one coun try to another he went, and -wherever he went he made an entrance for his wares. His company practically con trols all of the steel used In umbrella frames In this country. A certain va riety of steel is required for the frames. On an average his company exports 500 tons of steel yearly to the United States for this purpose. Under his management the business grew, expanded and developed until It has assumed enormous proportions. Much of the steel used In the manufacture of the famous Sheffield knives and cutlery comes from the mines of Mr. Funch. It goes all over the civilized world. While the business of Mr. Funch has been stretching anil reaching out into new fields, that of the other steel man ufacturers of Sweden has progressed but little, being held back by the disinter estedness of the aristocracy. Mr. and Mrs. Funch make their home ittMcv. htm JL&jzu at Stockholm, but the estate upon which are located the mines and factories is at Htjernsund Dalkarua, Sweden. Krosters Company, Ltd., is the name of the concern by which business Is transacted. There are several thousand people em ployed upon the estate -who till the 4000 acres of agricultural land and work in the mines and factories. One of the mines now being worked has been stead ily producing iron since the 15th century. The steel is made Into bars and then exported. It is of very . su perior quality and brings a very high prloe. "My visit to Pittsburg came as a reve lation to me," remarked Mr. Funch, when he had launched into praise of the enterprising Americans. "It's simply wonderful, wonderful," and he talked on with the enthusiasm of a boy who has Just seen something new. "It's hard to realize, but at Pittsburg the Homestead works alone turns out as much steel in a month as the whole of Sweden does In a year. I spent five or six days at Pittsburg and obtained much valuable information. "I like the -West much better than the East. In the East the people are nearly always rushed to death with busi ness, and have but little time to give strangers. But out here it is different. You also have lots of business, but your people always find time In which to be polite and courteous. "It Is to be regretted that Sweden and Norway do not stand together," he said, shifting the subject- "Russia is a constant menace to Sweden, and Nor way, too, but the people of the latter do not realise this. We distrust Rus sia and Norway is suspicious of us. If Russia could take Sweden and Norway it would have an ocean port open the year around, which it has not now. Of course, the Czar could not do anything Just now to overthrow Sweden and Norway, but you cannot tell what will come later, and we regard Russia as an ever-present danger." Mrs. Funch is an artist of no little -'1 .V : ) FUNCH. OF STOCKHOLM. talent. She is a bright, active woman whose refinement is very apparent. She is Immensely proud of her husband and he Is of her. He admitted yesterday that he consulted his wife about many business matters, "and- that she had the true business Instinct. He said she knew almost as much about the business as he did, as he made her his confidant. LOG HAULER MEETS DEATH ED J. TURNER FALLS IN WAY OF LOG-CARRIAGE. Peavey Breaks as He Is Prying Logs Apart at East Side Mill and Accident Proves Fatal. Ed J. Turner, employed as a log hauler at the plant of the East Side Mill & Lumber Company, met a horrible death yesterday afternoon about t o'clock, being crushed to death beneath the huge carriage which is used to convey logs from the platform to the saws. Turner was at work with a com panion pulling logs from the river onto the log platform or float and then rolling them on to the carriage nearby to be taken to the saws. Two monster log? became Jammed on the platform and Turner, who wan a powerful man of some 200 pounds, stepped toward the carriage and thrust his peavey between them to pry them apart. As he threw all his weight on the peavey It snapped and he fell backward direct ly in the path of the weighty carriage, which was coming back for a load. Spectators shouted for the engineer to stop the machine but their warning came too late. The heavy carriage struck the prostrate man and crushed the life out of his body. The mill was at once shut down and Coroner Flnley called. Upon Investiga tion the Coroner decided that no in quest was necessary, the death being caused purely by accident. The dead man had gone to work with the Sellwood mill on Monday. Previ ously he had been employed at the St. Johns Lumber Company. His brother, Gus Turner, Is employed now at the St. Johns mill as a teamster. He took charge of the body and will probably take It East with him to the family home In Wisconsin. Michael Walsh, of MUwankie, Die. Michael Walsh, a well-known farmer of Mllwaukie, died at his home yesterday morning from heart-disease. He was 65 years of age, and had been sick for sev eral month3. Mr. Walsh was born in County Sllgo, Ireland, and came to this country when he was 21 years old. He settled In California, where he lived for four years. He then returned to New York. Later he settled in Clackamas County, where he had since lived. He Is survived by his wife and the following children: Michael, Owen and Rose Walsh, of Milwaukle: Richard and Jack Walsh, of Portland; Frank Walsh, of Seattle, and Sister Mary Ignacla, of Sacred Heart Con vent, Seattle.

Xews of Railroads. Portland promises to come to the front as a car-building center. Four new trolley-cars will be turned out of the Portland Railway Company's shops this week for the use of the Willamette Valley Traction Company on the Salem-Chemawa division, where they will be put to work by September 8 unless there if some unforeseen delay in the completion of the first link of the Portland-Salem electric road. The new cars will be delivered at once. They are of the best type and are a decided credit to the builders. Car builders anywhere could hardly turn out better rolling stock of thls style. Perhaps few people realize that the local shops of the Portland Railway Company are turning out new cars all the time for use on the olty lines and that the best cars in service are the ones built here. The new and powerful Vancouver cars are the latest pro ducts of the local shops and they compare most favorably with similar pieces of rolling stock manufactured in the East. Work is being pushed by the Wll lametto Valley Traction Company on the Salem end. A large number of In dian students at the Chemawa school are busy grading and by the end of the month the line will be nearing comple tion as far north from Salem as Che mawa. The new cars Jost purchased will be put in commission in time to accommodate the State Fair travel from Salem. LOWER FARES TAKE EFFECT Cheaper Passenger Rates Now Ap ply on Harriman Lines. The reductions in passenger fares on Union Pacific and Oregon Short Line points lately announced by the Harri man passenger department have Just become effective, owing to a delay in preparing schedules for the informa tion of agents. The new tariffs were to have gone into effect in July. Here after the fare from Portland to Denver over the Union Pacific will be HI. 65 instead of $45. Fare from Portland to Boise will be $15.15 instead of $16.15 as formerly, and the churge of $31.53 from Portland to Salt Lake will be cut to $27. The reductions place the fare throughout the West on the Harriman lines at 8 cents a mile with the ex ception of Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico, where fare is charged on a basis of 4 cents. The rates in that territory have been lessened from 5 to 4 cents a mile by the reductions Just made. Reduced Rate on Ktravf board, A reduced rate on Btrawboard and chipboard from the East will probably soon be published by the railroads, making the tariff 50 cents per 100 pounds in carloads having a minimum of 60,000 pounds. The new rate will apply from Chicago and points west to North Pacific Coast terminals. The transcontinental lines are considering the establishment of a rate of $1.0 on cranberries, In carloads, from Chicago and common points to Northwest term inals. This will be a reduction of 30 cents per 100 pounds.
